Players' Newsletter - August 12th, 2022
Another great summer weekend of racing just around the corner! Coverage of Saratoga, Del Mar, Monmouth, Woodbine, and the Churchill Downs Arlington Million card are all available in this week’s Players’ Podcast.
Also, a quick(ish) note: We had a little tech hiccup on the late week show. With both Producer Craig and Producer AJ out, we were left with Producer PTF. And I do not have video editing skills so we decided to do the show live essentially. The first segments worked out GREAT, no issues. I even had the thought, "That wasn't so bad."
Well, the last segment was that bad and worse. We just couldn't get a stable connection with scheduled guest Jason Brrinkman of America's Pastime Stables. He was coming on to talk about his operation and the TRF BBQ which he is sponsoring, as are we. You can sign up here.
I ended up just doing the P6 races solo on the show, but I wanted to include his picks along with my own. And we'll make this a little bit of an ITM Plus “freeview” as Plus subscribers get little digests of the picks from the late week show every week, along with a lot of other special stuff. Here are our picks:
